Like most people, I've focused on the lips of the rosy lipped batfish (Ogcocephalusnasutus). But I had never seen one in profile. Check out that proboscis. It's used both as a shovel and a lure for prey. My own proboscis is pretty dull; the only thing it's good for is smelling. But the rosy lipped batfish has a Swiss Army proboscis. I'm a little jealous.

...and to continue on the "floozy" hooker red lips comments made, my grandmother always said "your lips look like a chicken's butt" when we girls were caught wearing too much red on the lips. To this day, I have no idea what that means but then again, I can't say I've ever really looked at a chicken's butt to know what she meant.
